Abstract

Ein optischer Berührschalter für ein Glaskeramikkochfeld (12) weist einen Lichtsender (14) und einen Lichtempfänger (16) auf, die jeweils unter einer maskenartigen Ausnehmung (26) einer gemeinsamen Leiterplatte (22) angebracht sind. Sie bilden eine Reflex-Lichtschranke als Berührschalter, mit dem das Auflegen eines Fingers auf einen Bereich über ihnen als Betätigung erkannt werden kann. Durch die maskenartige Ausnehmung (26) wird der Strahlengang (46, 50) begrenzt und weitere Bauteile wie separate Masken odgl. sind dafür nicht notwendig, um ein direktes Überstrahen zu verhindern.
